I'm a therapist and that fascinates people because they think I carry secrets.

When I was growing up, one or two girls were beautiful, but it was not an aspiration, right?

I'd like to see much more understanding of emotional issues around hurt, abandonment, disappointment, longing, failure and shame, where they stem from and how they drive people and policies brought into public discourse.

Today, 'fat' has become not a description of size but a moral category tainted with criticism and contempt.

Celebrity culture is something that pains me.

There is no such thing as a neutral therapist.

Consumer society tantalises us. We then try within ourselves to control the needs that are being constantly stimulated.
